How Ali (RA) Describe Anxiety

Ali (RA) the fourth caliph of Islam was a question as to what is the strongest thing that man find hard to overcome: his response is as follows.Mountains are enormous and strongBut man can use Metal to pierce through itHowever man can use Fire to melt metalBut water is at man’s disposal to put out fireWater is subjected to wind and clouds and boats can be use to sail through itAlcohol drink can also affect man’s behaviour and actionsBut when asleep alcohol too is overcomeWhat can render man the inability to even sleep is ANXIETY.Anxiety is the one thing that man find hard to overcomeAdapted from a lecture by Yassa Fazaqa

About Me

I was born in Seira Leone in 1977, in the District of Kono, the Town of Sefadou, the area locally known as Obawese or Tinbelane, by a Gambian father and Mother. I came to the Gambia shortly after the aborted 1981 bloody coup. I resided with my step-father, the late MP A.K Touray in Bakau and London Corner, before resettling to our Constituency of Sandou, URR. I consider myself an activist for progress and wanting to see an end to tyranny and oppression. I am affiliated with the UDP. I write on various topics. I believe strongly in family values and home education for children. I love the history of the Gambia and her different cultures . I now host a Tuesday show on www.kibaaro.com on culture and tradition. I have completed an MA degree in Islamic Banking, Finance and Management in Gloucestershire University and in partnership with the Markfield institute, an expert specialist in Islamic education in Europe. My first academic career is Accountancy which is still a field I love. My day job is administering financial issues at a local government authority, a job I enjoy fully.
I can be reached by email or on skype at suntou5 or suntou@btinternet.com.
